I love a good slow cooker recipe – especially when it’s dessert! I’m pretty sure I have an addiction to slow cookers. I bought two more in the past week and I’ve used them both several times. There’s just something about the convenience of slow cookers that appeals to me. Whether it’s dinner or dessert, everything tastes better in a slow cooker.
Speaking of dessert, whatcha think about these brownies? I almost called these Death By Chocolate Slow Cooker Brownies and the name would have been apt. My friend Hayley over at The Domestic Rebel recently came out with a cookbook called Out of the Box Desserts. It’s genius. Basically, every recipe is semi-homemade and simply fabulous. I, for one, LOVE a good shortcut.
There are only about 70 bajillion recipes that I want to try from this book but, due to my slow cooker addiction and this lovely fall weather, I headed straight for these slow cooker brownies. The brownies couldn’t be easier to make and because I’m a sucker for turtles, I added caramel and pecans to her Hot Fudge Slow Cooker Brownies to make them even more irresisitble.
The pecans rise to the top while cooking and then when you scoop the brownies out, the center is absolutely gooey and wonderful and it’s nearly impossible to resist topping the entire scoop with some vanilla ice cream.
Resistance has never been a strong suit of mine. Caramel sauce, hot fudge sauce, pecans – dress it up how you want it!
Now that I’ve knocked out the brownies I’ve got Pumpkin Spice Mini Cheesecakes, Cheesecake Brownie Bombs, and Mocha Brownie Tiramisu on my to-do list for this next week…or two 🙂
After you buy your copy of this cookbook, pick up a few more for friends! This book would make an excellent gift!

Can you use a smaller crock pot? 2 quart? 4 quart?

Hello! This is my first time on you site and now have an inclining to make so many recipes on here. lol I have a question for this recipe, my 75 yr old Mother LOVES Brownies, I am highly allergic to eggs, and Poultry, is there anything I can sub for the eggs? I would love to enjoy this with my Mom as her once a week dessert. We are both Diabetics and we treat ourselves to a sweet now and again. The brownies almost look like Lava Cake so I know she will love them. Half the time if I make brownies she does not wait for them to cool off before she is raiding the pan. Sorry for babbling. Thanks in advance.

Oh thank you Ann! You can substitute in 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce for each egg. It will change the texture slightly but will still be delicious. I hope you and your Mom enjoy!
Katie says
Can it be doubled?
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
Hmmm… I wouldn’t Katie. I don’t think it would cook right.
Mike says
Why do you use such a big slow cooker?
